Truth to be told, I didn't like the game at all. I felt like everything in the game was mediocre. The voice acting was bad, and the level design too. The writing in general including the plot and the dialogue was lacking, and the characters looked bland and stiff that I felt like they were robots. The gameplay was decent but it was too repetitive. The only aspect that I loved about the game was the Musical composition.

Dragon Quest Builders 2 is a 2018 game in Japan, I played it in December of last year and have most of the DLC save for retailer exclusives (I bought it digitally).

Sounds like the Drakengard of the modern generation......which would explain why Yoko Taro likes it.

It seems like Japan took to Death Stranding a lot more than Americans did.
